So Nimesh and I just saw the Cayman....
Nimesh and I ended up at Pfaff for a moment, and they had a brand new Cayman in the showroom.
Now, i thought it looked like ass in the pictures, but when you actually see one, its so seductive.
The hips over the rear wheels are so sweet, and the whole car is tight. Makes you wonder why you would buy a 911 if you didn't need the rear seats.

Yeah well they now have engine management for my car and a more efficient CTSC that will bring me up to 400rwhp....
Not sure I want to dump $15k into it to get there, but the car would be retarded....

there's a great article in Porsche Excellence I think that compares the Cayman to the 993...
they are very close in size, weight, and performance....
I'm telling you guys, its pretty exotic looking.

I like how Clarkson put it, the germans wanted the car to fit in the middle of their lineup and it does PERFECTLY, too Perfectly.
He felt the car could be better, it's not developed to it's full potential it is being restrained so it's not better than a 911. That's unfortunate, when you buy a car you want it to be engineered to it's fullest, not held back by marketting

Not even a LSD available for it but there will be lots of them kicking 911 ass on the tracks I imagine. I can see my self picking one up in a couple of years, after someone else takes the depreciation hit.
